Town Loop 5k: Getting some good runs in before the shin splints set in. Is it too much to ask that I skip that part this time? I’d be a miracle. It seems I go through it every time I take a week or two or more off from running. #Prayers. . . #DieEveryDay #DieEveryDayFitness #RunFatBoyRun #NeverGiveUp #RunnersLife #NeverBackDown #KillItEveryDay #DownShifter #Nike #CamelBak #NoExcuses #100to0 #SpartanUp #EmbraceTheSuck #ObstacleImmunity https://www.instagram.com/p/CClRFScjbDk/?igshid=1ers3bpn7aqka

Town Loop 5k: . “We ALL look away from the things we can’t bare to face! (Whether external or internal). All men look away! That’s the difference between a regular man and a KING! Kings DO NOT ever look away! -Àstrid Bergès-Frisbey- King Arthur: Legend of the Sword . Thanks for the words of encouragement yesterday Paul and Jim. It’s exactly what I needed to take a hard look at where I was failing myself. Although my diet isn’t making me sick it still wasn’t on par with what my body needed for PROGRESS. I ate well last night. Cutting way back on beer and added a lot of greens and fiber. ***EARMUFF WARNING*** Today was the first run in weeks I didn’t feel like I was going to $@#+ my pants the whole time. Got a good 5k under my belt before the usual problems set in. SHIN SPLINTS COME AND GET SOME! I’M READY!!! . . #DieEveryDay #DieEveryDayFitness #RunFatBoyRun #NeverGiveUp #RunnersLife #NeverBackDown #KillItEveryDay #DownShifter #Nike #CamelBak #NoExcuses #100to0 #SpartanUp #EmbraceTheSuck #ObstacleImmunity https://www.instagram.com/p/CCa67tdjnYU/?igshid=oxgiay0wly3e

Town Loop 5k: I’ve definitely hit a wall. I had hernia surgery back around the beginning of the year and everything has been fine. But after last weeks run I had some sharp pains on my left side abdomen reminiscent of the pre-surgery pains I was having. I have a doctors appointment coming up but amongst other issues with my gut running has become difficult in a way I’ve not had overcome before. Feeling my age and not because I just turned 44. . . #DieEveryDay #DieEveryDayFitness #RunFatBoyRun #NeverGiveUp #RunnersLife #NeverBackDown #KillItEveryDay #DownShifter #Nike #CamelBak #NoExcuses #100to0 #SpartanUp #EmbraceTheSuck #ObstacleImmunity https://www.instagram.com/p/CCYY6Imj-7H/?igshid=1tyrk257ikxdx

Town Loop 5k: I had a really good first two miles but had to run through some fairly agonizing shin splints the last 1.11. Listening to some “Elements” by Toby Mac and pushing through like a beast (albeit slowly) and finishing anyway. . “I might bend but I won’t break. I fight the elements. And ima go down swinging. If I go down. LETS GO !!!” -TobyMac- . . #DieEveryDay #DieEveryDayFitness #RunFatBoyRun #NeverGiveUp #RunnersLife #NeverBackDown #KillItEveryDay #DownShifter #Nike #CamelBak #NoExcuses #100to0 #SpartanUp #EmbraceTheSuck #ObstacleImmunity https://www.instagram.com/p/CBf04xOj--d/?igshid=tktw4q51zhpr

Smith Pond Park Trail 4 miles: Combo Trail/Road run today. That ole’ ankle started acting up again today but this time I ignored it. No babying it today. I pushed harder and you know what?! It stopped. I ran up the hill on court street at a sprint to end the run. Somethings you just have to push through or you NEVER grow. Feeling Strong! . . #DieEveryDay #DieEveryDayFitness #RunFatBoyRun #NeverGiveUp #RunnersLife #NeverBackDown #KillItEveryDay #DownShifter #Nike #CamelBak #NoExcuses #100to0 #SpartanUp #EmbraceTheSuck #ObstacleImmunity https://www.instagram.com/p/CBdPtnZAkFh/?igshid=13yoo01kk8hw4

Town Loop 5k: My ankle is feeling much better. I’m still having some joint pain but I think I need to embrace it, push through it and conquer it! Ending the week on a good note. I’m hoping for faster, longer runs next week. . . #DieEveryDay #DieEveryDayFitness #RunFatBoyRun #NeverGiveUp #RunnersLife #NeverBackDown #KillItEveryDay #DownShifter #Nike #CamelBak #NoExcuses #100to0 #SpartanUp #EmbraceTheSuck #ObstacleImmunity https://www.instagram.com/p/CBS9HTijbS0/?igshid=ohem1x5hwmw0
